Tbf, I've had an England flag up in my garden since the 2016 world cup/euros (which ever competition it was), never had an issue in nearly 10 years. It would be seen by hundreds/thousands every day.

One of those things that's largely made up so people can play the victim imo,

Do you have sex with it? @PVA may do a bit of flag dogging if he knows where you live.

I don't recall saying there's anything wrong with being proud of it.

Keep frothing about things that haven't actually been said though, while calling everyone else losers.

You basically called people flag shaggers, it’s an embarrassment moment for yourself

I'm going to divide opinion (just for a change ) ..

I'm proud to be English and absolutely think anyone should have the right to put a flag up or wave it when they like without being labelled a flag shagger or a racist or patriot or whatever other derogatory terms are currently used ... however whenever I see one on a pole in someone's garden, my first reaction is to tut and think 'chavvy c**t'. I know a paradox of cuntiness on my part!

Nothing compared to Northern Ireland where flag obsession is on a whole other level. Not just Union Jacks but whole streets and roads decked with King Charles coronation flags

Nothing, I found going there made me really reflect on what British identity means. Our English accents made us either very welcome in some parts or clearly unwelcome in others.

The people living there have been treated very poorly by too many British governments considering how proudly British many there still are.

Nowhere except in the ‘Irish’ villages of NI we travelled through. Bit of a time capsule as in the Republic we had no such experiences

There's nothing wrong with being proud to be English or proud of the flag, I agree.

Some people just take it waaay too far.

It's these kind of people that are flag shaggers, and more than meet your description at the end of your post

I hope they took precaution in the form of some fire retardant substance.

Then go to that road and put them up on the lampposts and let's see if they get a different response.

So VAT killing private school was bollocks a non doms leaving was bollocks. What else? IHT on farms probably.

Anyone who got up in arms about this realise they’re being played yet?

Nothing to do with what the flag is, its attaching anything to lamposts without authorisation that could be considered a distraction to motorists.

Although the rules seem to apply randomly. Can't have advertising on the side of the skydome arena because it would be too distracting but the council want to put electronic ads up around the ring road.

I think it's the M5 not far from merry hill they have one that's really distracting. The electronic one by the Walsall ground on the M6 is also pretty distracting too with the flashing adverts

Never understood how advertising boards are allowed.

So many things they want to stop you having in the car because it'd distracting but a massive brightly coloured tv screen literally designed to try and get your attention is absolutely fine.
